Mao Mao Chong
Innovative cocktails in the best of the backstreet bars
A trip to a hutong bar is essential while you’re in Beijing. The lively Mao Mao Chong, off the busy tourist strip of Nan Luogu Xiang, is perhaps the best of the many small but imaginative drinking dens in historic residential areas. Try its innovative cocktails, such as the Sichuan peppercorn-infused Mala Mule and the Maojito with a twist of ginger.
